Mobile Phone Security has gone one step further. OKI Japan has just released an iris recognition software which uses the camera of your mobile phone (if it has a resolution of, at least, one megapixel).
This is, in fact, a new middleware layer which greatly improve mobile phone security (is supposed to give as false positives as one per 100.000) and right now it is available, of course, only in Japan.

After one month from the presentation of the Cupertino phone, the #iphone IRC channel have built the first unauthorized iPhone GUI application.
With a simple “Hello World” black screen, it is the first step to publish a complete unauthorized development environment. Maybe this actions make Apple change this oppinion about installation of real third part applications.
They have released the source for the demo app, buildable with the community-built toolchain and UIKit.
There’s also a compiled binary version of the app being hosted here.

15 years!!!! SMS has become a teenager.
I don’t mean to remark SMS qualities. It has already been done plenty of times. I want to criticize comment what I call the “swiss army knife” of mobile operator excuses.

Microvision has announced that they have signed an agreement with Motorola to integrate the Pico Projector into future Motorola products.
The PicoP is an ultra-miniature laser based display engine that will enable big screen viewing for mobile devices. While the details of the agreement weren’t disclosed, the two companies did say that they were working together to integrate the PicoP into a working handset for demo purposes. The prototype phone will use the new WVGA, 854 x 480 pixel wide angle scanner that Microvision introduced at the May 2007 Society of Information Display conference.

Last week I received the new HTC Touch. A new Windows Mobile 6.0 device with an innovative interface called by HTC as TouchFLO.
This interface is a piece of software that allows the user, moving his finger over the screen, to quickly access most common applications and favorite contacts through a 3D cube graphic user interface. In that way, if you make a move with your finger from bottom to top of the screen, the 3D cube magically appears.
